Description

There seem to be an issue with macro blocks not allowing to have a cursor around the macro block.

In this example with the experimental TODO macro, it is impossible to position the cursor to add a line or even type around the TODO macro block.

Would there be any way to fix it ?

Try this:

  1. Select the macro by clicking on it
  2. Press the HOME or END key

Does it work for you. Is it enough?

The workaround with the Home key doesn't work when the page starts with a macro followed by text:

{{html}}xwiki{{/html}}

after

So far I couldn't find a way to place the caret before the HTML macro.

Tested on Firefox, Chrome and Opera. You just have to place the caret at the start/end of the macro output and type (e.g. press Enter, Space or any other character).
